Despite the ignorant prognostications of the Plantagenet clones, it is self evident that there is a direct causal link between massacres and the violence endorsing, and the revenge and massacre admiring cultures promoted by our entertainment industries. A culture where teen heart throb Leonardo di Caprio in the movie BASKETBALL DIARIES, walks into a schoolroom in a long black leather coat and starts blasting dead teachers and pupils with a shotgun. It is a culture which admires the personalities of consciousness mass killers. A culture which produces music singing the praises of misogyny and the joys of raping ones own mother, which is a siren song for confused adolescents and immature adults with borderline personality disorders. A culture where children learn how funny it is to break the rules and sneer at their societies most deeply held moral values, through trash talking animated cartoon shows like SOUTH PARK. And a culture which desensitises it's youth with Operant Conditioning against the normal human inhibitions preventing the injuring our killing of members of their own species, available in any video arcade at $2.00 dollars for a three minute session.

It is inevitable that western society will be forced to emplace stronger censorship on the entertainment industries. We can no longer watch children committing the sort of crimes which children have never committed before. We can no longer put children on trial as adults and sentence them to 40 year jail terms. We can't keep building ever more prisons, reopen old ones, hire ever more police, create armies of security guards, build ever more "gated fortress communities", put metal detectors in every school entrance, or TV cameras in every bus, school playground, hospital emergency ward, public park, railway station, street corner, shop, or parking lot. Nor can we use firearms and firearm owners as convenient scapegoats, vilify them as a group, force them to hand in their firearms, and think that the problem is now solved.

Martin Bryant had a measured IQ of 66, which entitled him to a disability pension. Despite senior bureaucrats initially scoffing that Bryant's video library contained violent video's, subsequent investigations discovered that Bryant did in fact have an extensive library of violent video's which included video's featuring bestiality. The local video shop owner admitted that Bryant's favourite movie was Sylvester Stallone's FIRST BLOOD. His own library contained a collection of violent video's starring Steven Segal. Witnesses attested that his most popular exclamation was "don't ferk with the Chuck!" This was the expression used by the murderous doll from the movie CHILD"S PLAY, the movie which is strongly suspected of influencing child murderer James Bulger.

Immature, socially isolated young men, some with very low intelligence and low self esteem, as well as awkward immature schoolboys, had always existed in society. But never before had these self same demographics ever got it in their befuddled heads to go on killing sprees. Despite the fact that throughout nearly all western societies, firearm laws had traditionally been "lax", and self loading rifles and shotguns had been around for 100 years.

But today's movies and computer games, provided scripts for the befuddled, on how a Real Man hit back at the societies which shunned and humiliated them. You pick up a gun, or a knife, or a box of matches, and you get even. For Bryant, it meant everything in the world to prove that he was a man to be feared and admired, rather than a weak misfit to be laughed at, shunned, and bullied. To continue to produce violent massacre movies which are deliberately engineered to appeal to powerless young men like Bryant, or Wade Frankum, or Julian Knight, who fantasise about revenge, and who have been conditioned by movies to think that ultra violent young men are sexually attractive to the most beautiful young women, is to sow the seeds of infamy on fertile ground.

strangely enough the same regressives who always argued the dogma that you are not affected by what you read and watch now want censorship. They wanted there 'freedom' to indulge in their porn and violence. The burn the bra brigade are reaping exactly what they have sown unfortunately.

"Thanks for the lack of links to back up your points". plantagenet, are you really so impressed with the thoughts of some professor that you require their thoughts before you can form an opinion.

I have very little respect for those who fill posts with links. They are showing that they do not think for themselves, but merely parrot the opinions of those they believe have some authority. I am more interested in the opinions of people who have bothered to think for themselves.

Having seen how academics lie & cheat to try to get published, I have very little respect for most of them. Having seen how academics lie & cheat to try to get published, I have very little respect for most of them. A quick look at James Cook reef "science" or the CSIRO rubbish published to try to support the scam of global warming should be enough for anyone to treat links with litytyle respect.

Hi Plantagenet.

Thanks' for your link. Now I will analyse it for you so that you can see how you were hoodwinked.

1. NEARLY TWO THIRDS OF GUN DEATHS ARE SUICIDES.

So what? Suicidal people will use whatever is available when committing suicide. When my cancer gets too much for me, I am going to use my .22 to finish things, and that is nobody else's business but mine.

2. THE US HOMICIDE RATE IS 5 TIMES THAT OF AUSTRALIA.

But if all the homicides involving firearms are removed from the US statistics entirely, the US homicide rate would still be twice that of Australia. That is positive proof that something other than the mere presence of firearms causes people to kill others.

3. BLACK MALES ARE 15 TIMES MORE LIKELY TO BE SHOT THAN WHITE MALES.

Now we are getting somewhere. Black men are insanely violent and not to be trusted with firearms. Instead of banning guns, let's stop importing black Africans. That may be racist, but it is also common sense.

4. 1 MILLION FEMALES HAVE SURVIVED BEING SHOT BY THIR PARTNERS.

With black females 16 times more likely to be murdered by their spouses than white females, the primary problem is black males, not guns.

5. ACCESS TO GUNS IN A DOMESTIC CONFRONTATION MAKES IT FIVE TIMES MORE LIKELY THAT IT ILL RESULT IN HOMOCIDE.

Being a black female makes it 16 times more likely that she will be a homicide statistic than a white female, guns or not.

6. EVERY DAY 100 AMERICANS ARE KILLED WITH GUNS.

While in gun free London, the homicide rate caused by black African gangs stabbing people, has caused London's homicide rate to be greater than New York City.

Here is a couple of my own statistics from the US FBI, Plantagenet.

White males are 60 times more likely to be assaulted by black males than black males by whites.

White females are 200 times more likely to be sexually assaulted by black males than black females have of being sexually assaulted by white males.

Identify the problem.

Lego's 'racist' remarks are backed up by the high rate of gun ownership in Switerland where they don't have nearly the problems the US have. Maybe its something to do with 'white privelege', at least thats what the unis will tell you.
